3 - Run it

You need a reverse proxy to access flarum, this is not described here. You can use the solution of your choice (Traefik, Nginx, Apache, Haproxy, Caddy, H2O...etc).

docker-compose up -d

Fill out the installation form :

  • Your admin password must contain at least 8 characters.
  • You can't use MariaDB 10.2 or 10.3 for the moment. More information on this issue here.
  • If you get an error 500 with Something went wrong message, switch the DEBUG environment variable to true to see the actual error message in your browser.
